It portrayed four reigning monarchs of the time—Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, Beatrix of the Netherlands, Margrethe II of Denmark, and Ntombi Twala of Swaziland. Warhol based the images on official portraits, then overlaid them with vivid blocks of colour and drawn embellishments that highlighted jewels and regalia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Castelli Uptown opening poster is a rare surviving example of gallery ephemera from the series’ debut. Most were discarded after the exhibition, making intact examples desirable collectibles today. With its direct connection to both Warhol’s late career and Queen Elizabeth II—whose portraits later entered the Royal Collection—this poster embodies the intersection of Pop Art, celebrity, and monarchy. A significant piece of Warhol exhibition history and a standout addition to any Pop Art collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShips flat between archival boards, fully insured.
